Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.

The Z289L ZTE Hotspot LTE

Hi, fellows of Cyberspace, today I want to talk about the Z289L ZTE let is star

The Z289L ZTE Hotspot LTE is a 4G LTE device

• The 550 MHz processor speed.

• Comes with Linux + REX operating system

• The data transfer rate in LTE is 100 Mbps DL / 50 Mbps UL at 20MHz, HSPA + 21 Mbps DL / 5.76 Mbps U.

• It offers up to five connectivity through Wi-Fi.

• The internal memory is 120 MB.

• It allows you to use a memory card of up to 32 GB of microSDHC expandable memory.

• The time of navigation of the battery for single connected equipment is about 13 hours, the time that can remain on unused is more than 8 days.

• The external display is colored and supports input functionality.

• Size 3.87 x 2.26 x 0.76

• Compatible with most browsers.

• The design of the menu is very comfortable and useful; the menu to configure it through the browser is simple and easy.

When you go to buy it, you will have several options and are not at all advertised: in one of the corners of the box is a map of the coverage: if it is red the service is offered by Verizon, if it is orange Service is offered by AT & T, if it is pink the service is offered by T-mobile.

The price plans for the monthly use of data vary over time but at the time of this article, they range from $ 15 to $ 75.

I hope you liked it until next time.

Windows Vista: The Promise That Became a Nightmare

Windows Vista: The Promise That Became a Nightmare

When Microsoft announced Windows Vista, many of us greeted it with excitement. It promised to be the future: a new era of design, security, and performance. But what we got was something else entirely. For me, Vista wasn't an operating system: it was a virus masquerading as a revolution. A disaster disguised as innovation.

The Promise: A Leap into the Future

- Modern Design: Aero Glass, transparencies, smooth animations… Vista looked like the future. And in many ways, it was.

- Enhanced Security: After the vulnerabilities of XP, Vista promised to protect users with User Account Control (UAC) and a more robust kernel.

- New Technologies: ReadyBoost, SuperFetch, DirectX 10… Vista brought fresh ideas to improve performance and the multimedia experience.

The Reality: A System That Wasn't Ready

- Heavy and Unstable: Vista demanded more resources than most computers could provide. What should have been fluid became sluggish. What was supposed to be stable crashed.

- Broken compatibility: Many programs and drivers simply didn't work. Printers, scanners, games… everything seemed to need patches, updates, or miracles.

- UAC: the annoying guardian: Instead of discreetly protecting users, User Account Control became a wall of constant warnings. Opening an application was like asking permission to breathe.

- Broken promises: Many announced features never arrived or were cut back. The system felt more like a glorified beta than a finished product.

What went wrong? Vista was a victim of its own ambition. It tried to be too much, too soon. Microsoft attempted to reinvent the wheel without having the road ready. The result was a system that frustrated users, developers, and manufacturers alike. Its reputation was so damaged that when Windows 7 arrived, many of us welcomed it as an act of redemption.

Epilogue: a lesson in technological humility

Vista taught us that making promises isn't enough. That innovation without stability is just smoke and mirrors. That good design doesn't compensate for a bad user experience. And, above all, that users don't forget.

Today, looking back, I don't feel nostalgia. I feel relief. Because Vista was a warning disguised as an operating system. And although it had valuable ideas, its execution was, in a word, disastrous.

Where fear is, happiness is not

First encounter with an extraterrestrial object

Good fellows of cyberspace. The other day I had a great opportunity that only happens from time to time, a new member of my astronomy club, owns a meteorite that impacted with the earth in the year 1516 near Quanxi that is in the province of Nandan In the Republic of China. He gave us the opportunity to see, touch and take photos.

• Official Classification Nickel and Iron. Octaedrite type IIICD.

It has up to 17% of its total weight is Nickelal also has up to 7.5% of Kamacite, which is more common of the two nickel iron alloys found in iron meteorites, also has Taenite which is less common In iron and nickel alloys found in iron meteorites. It contains between 27 to 65% of Taenite's nickel and forms small crystals that appear as highly reflecting this tapes on the etched surface of a meteorite.

• The experience is very interesting and I will comment it.

First: The aspect that has, is very common and metallic.

Second: and very surprising is the weight, because of the high density its weight is very high for its size.

Third: the touch is much closer to crystal than to metal.

Fourth: When you have it in your hands, you feel that something that is different or is not off is very difficult to explain but very real.

I leave you all the photos I hope you like it
